[AMP-L] Prosthetics Users Have Freedom to Wear Flip-flops

[Wayne Renardson]

via Culture Map Austin, TX:

Texas-based premium sandal company Hari Mari has launched a new 
initiative that fits perfectly with the brand's socially conscious 
ethos: providing U.S. military and first responders with flip-flops 
designed specifically for prosthetic legs.  

Called Freedom Flops, they're made with a removable backstrap, 
allowing wearers to keep the straps in tact to fit their prosthetic 
limbs.  

The first batch of 50 Freedom Flops was produced and given to 
amputees in Dallas-Fort Worth.  

While the special sandals are not yet available for purchase, anyone 
can use the website to register someone they know who could use a 
pair of Freedom Flops. A Hari Mari spokeswoman says they'll be 
placing a shipment soon for those who've been registered. There is no 
cost to the registrant or the recipient.
